obama is not the first to use tragedy in describing events like this. a bus accident is a tragedy and attack is an act of war. when fdr addressed the congress after pearl harbor, he didn't say december 7th, a day that will live in tragedy, it is a day that will live in infamy. it has to do with agency and cause. an accident is a tragedy and it has a cause and has to do with fate, accident, luck. when the agency is human evil that is beyond a tragedy. it's a crime. that is what we're dealing with. i agree it's a little early. it was obvious an attack. to call it terrorism you had to be sure that the motive was a political one. remember what happened in the tucson shooting where a member of congress was shot by loughner. they assumed it was a terror attack and inspired by a right wing to attack a congresswoman. >> that was false. >> so you have to establish it was a political one. probably is but we're not sure yet. >> bill: i'm glad you and i agree on those two aspects regarding president obama. here is where we disagree. i believe u.s. intelligence has

why is president obama unnecessarily delaying your flight? that's a quote from eric cantor, wrote in edge in on twitter. if the president wanted to, republicans said, he could easily cut somewhere else and spare travelers any inconvenience. as it happens, sequester law is clear in requiring the f.a.a. and most other agencies to cut their programs by an even amount. that law was foisted on the public after republicans demanding spending cuts in exchange for raising the debt ceiling in 2011. since then the party has rejected every offer to relays the sequester with a more sensible mix of cuts and revenue increases. mr. boehner is so proud of that strategy that he recently congratulated his party for sticking with the sequester and standing up to the present demands for tax increases. but drastic cuts in spending carry a heavy price. republicans certainly don't want voters they care about including business travelers and those who can afford to fly on vacation, to feel it. they to into claim that the $5 -- the $85 billion in this year's sequeste
